The Virginia Civil War Centennial Commission plans to re-enact several of the major battles and to depict other aspects of the War. The purpose of this observance is to stimulate interest and to arouse appreciation of the sacrifices of both North and South during these war-torn years. The 1961 Missile joins in this observance by using this War as its theme. The heritage of the past, from the War Between the States, offers to America its inspiration for the future. This heritage is built on perhaps the greatest show of heroism, bravery, and devotion to ideals that has ever been known. Petersburg, Virginia, was the area of some of the bloodiest engagements. The Battle of the Crater claimed hundreds of lives from both the Gray and the Blue. An outstanding example of the devotion of the South was in the small force of boys and old men which went out to defend the city from the Northern forces. “To do and dare, and die at need, But while life lasts, to fight — For right or wrong a simple creed, But simpliest for the right.” Gettysburg”, by James Jeffrey Roche four General Robert E. Lee General John B. Gordon General Pierre Gustave Toutant Beauregard General William Mahone five THE HAPPY WARRIOR “Who is the happy Warrior? Who is he That every man in arms should wish to be? It is the generous spirit, who, when brought Among the tasks of real life, hath wrought Upon the plan that pleased his boyish thought: Whose high endeavors are an inward light That makes the path before him always bright . . . Mr. Russell B. Gill, principal of Petersburg High School, came to our school from Louisa County in July, 1943. Under his leadership, the Student Coopera- tive Association and a wider program of student activities have been developed, a guidance program has been set up and the curriculum has been strengthened. Mr. Gill’s devotion to Petersburg is evident in every phase of school life. He believes strongly in the support, both by the community and by the student body, of school activities. To illustrate this point, Mr. Gill says that he has missed only two of Petersburg High School’s football games in his seventeen years as principal. His ability as a leader has received state-wide recognition. He is past presi- dent of the Department of Secondary Schools of Virginia and is Chairman of the Group One Board of Virginia. One of his chief interests is the study of history, particularly Civil War his- tory concerning Petersburg. At one time, he taught history among other sub- jects, at Warsaw High Schol. His busy schedule does not permit as much time for reading as he would like, but he does particularly enjoy his collection of Civil War books. Mr. Gill indeed “makes the path before him always bright’’ with his endur- ing patience, kindness, generosity, and understanding. The Missile Staff of 1961, with great pride and deep affection, dedicates the 1961 Missile to the “happy Warrior”, Mr. Gill. 1 “The Happy Warrior” by William Wordsworth. six Russell Benjamin Gill seven ADMINISTRATION Edwin M.

Those dates were decisive, just as the final year of a senior at PHS is decisive. After the four years of long and sanguinary conflict, the South was ready to re- build and begin again. In the same manner, a senior, after his four years of suc- cesses and defeats, emerges ready to meet new challenges in the “conflicts” of adult life. thirteen Senior Committee Left to right.

Lee A man upon a white horse rode Who had the kingly look; He kept within his heart a code That came from God’s good book. He fought for what he thought was right Although his side look’d dark; Against the North’s bright shining light He left his fabled mark. Lee’s troops gave him the best they had As all can plainly see; He made them feel content, so proud To follow R. E. Lee. - — Lee Smoot “Blue” and Gray I’m a barefoot Reb from Tennessee Who joined the Southern Cav-al-ree. My uniform was homespun gray, My horse, he was a plain ole bay. At Petersburg, my bay was shot And poundin’ the groun’ became my lot. I found me a hound. Ole Blue I did name. Together we tree’d Yankees (Jeff Davis’ game). We fought from Richmond to Alabam’, Even foraged us a Virginia ham. Ole’ Blue and me done fought this war And never seen killing like this before. We seen men’s bodies all forlorn And sometimes wonder why man was born. If I do get back to Tennessee Where me and Ole’ Blue can wander free, I’ll find myself a good ole’ home From which I hope I’ll never roam. - — Judy Borland Riches The sunlight streaming through the trees, The soft, cool shadows on the earth Are jewels from the One who sees And knows the value of our worth. The gold and silver men have craved Would buy a royal crown for kings; But souls by riches are not saved To God, wealth lies in other things. W e have a long, hard way to go, But think how glad and rich we’d be If only we could make ourselves know That things like smiles and love are free. — Jean Lynn Moonlight Sifted-silver moonlight Filters o’er the town. Drifting over trees and yards, Falling on the ground. Sifted-silver moonlight Making nature bright. Fills all the world with peace, Lighting up the night. Just as moonlight gives the earth Illumination bold. Just so may the love of God Illuminate my soul! ■ — Sandra Wheeler Surry My native home lies on the James When first the settlers stepped on land While still are heard familiar names Reminiscent of that English band. Today there stands a stately home While lived the son of an Indian maid And visitors do love to roam Through the forest to a lovely glade. Smith built his fort in sixteen-nine To save the colonists from harm. It lies secluded among the pine; It’s never lost its rustic charm. The stately homes along the shore Which stand today to recall the past; Of romantic days that are no more Of chivalry and loves that last. Today the sleepy village lies Quietly reminded of the past By those who come to see our prize Our heritage renowned at last. — Mary Wilson Land Run-Away The child left his bed rather early. Quite tousled and drowsy and small. He peeked at his parents, still sleeping, And then quietly crept down the hall. He came to the closet and borrowed, A handkerchief from the third shelf. He filled it with all his possessions. To be sure, he felt pleased with himself. A pink stone and a book were included A tin soldier quite faded, not new. An old coin he had found in the gutter, And three marbles all speckled with blue. Then on to the kitchen he sauntered, Ate until he could hold no more. Then added some cake to his treasures, And silently sneaked out the door. For it seems that his mother had spanked him, For chores he’d forgotten one day. Now the puzzle is fitting together. His pride hurt, he’s running away. But as soon as the cakes had been eaten, And the treasures seemed heavy as lead. He willingly gave up his idea, And returned to his parents and bed. — Becky Ruffin Paradise There often comes to my ever-wandering mind A never-to-be-forgotten, ancient thought Of that sweet paradise I hope to find, A place where coveted fame can not be bought. A spacious land where envy dwells no more. Where men of wealth and greed are not allowed And our familiar pleasures none deplore, And where, except to God, no head is bowed. I hope to be of purest thought and deed, To that no ill can now befall; For now, I will let God my footsteps lead. Until my soul, to Heaven, He shall call. - — Johann Vinson forty-eight Large Confederate Gun LIEUTENANTS This large gun in the Rebel works at Petersburg, Virginia, is in connection with an interesting anecdote concerning General Lee. “It is stated that during the fight, Sunday, April 24, 1865, General Lee stood on the little knell in the foreground, and actually shed tears when he saw his own troops being driven back by the Union soldiers”. At many times, the juniors have faced discouraging moments when the prob- lems to be faced seemed very difficult. They must remember that such proud and happy moments, as they have already had with the Ring Dance, lie ahead for them in 1962.

Points are won by homerooms having good participation in activities, a high percentage of at- tendance, and a low percentage of conduct time. sixty-seven Freshman Committee Mrs. Patricia Newman, Pam Crowder, Evelyn Dudley, Hugh Powell, Bonnie Robertson, Polly Romaine, Ricky Siegel. 1-L Class Officers President Ricky Siegel Vice-President Hugh Powell Committee Member Polly Romaine 1-H Class Officers President Pam Crowder Vice-President Bonnie Robertson Committee Member Evelyn Dudley Allen, Dickie Allison, Brenda Anderson, John Anderson, Laura Andrews, Linda Andrews, Phyllis Andrews, Roy Bailey, Douglas Barker, Linda Barnes, Rags Barrett, Maxine Barrett, Walter Beck, Jack Belch, Clyde Bernard, Elizabeth Billups, Donald Blankenship, Robin Blick, Reggie sixty-eight Blick, Robert Boisseau, Gayee Boone, Cherie Bowling, David Bristow, Linda Brittain, Judith Brockwell, Jerry Brockwell, Wayne Browning, John Burgess, Edward Burgess, Dorothy Burgess, Sandra Campbell, Carol Capilongo, Louis Carden, Janie Carlisle, Hazel Carr, Eddie Carricato, Toni Challen, Richard Chappell, Daisy Clements, Sandra Cody, John Compton, Elsie Cooke, June Cornett, Shirley Crichton, Linda Crowder, Daniel Crowder, Pam Cunningham, Linfield Curtis, Scott Davis, Jerry Davis, Jerry Davis, Patty Davis, Robert Davis, Russell Dick, Charle Dorsk, Jay Dudley, Evelyn Durham, Frank Durley, Barbara Dyson, James Eanes, Joan sixty-nine Eanes, Mary Eley, Jeanette Ellis, Edith Ellis, Marcia Farris, Mike Ferrell, Jerry Fishel, Linda Flint, Carol Ford, Constance Foulkrod, Terry Gainey, Sandra Gardner, Phyllis Garris, Wenda Gay, Walter Gecsey, David Giles, George Gill, David Gill, Larry Goodwyn, Danny G rammer, Helen Grammer, Janie Grandstrom, Dianne Greever, Janie Grizzard, William Hardy, Bobby Hahn, John Hall, Eddie Harris, Mac Harrison, Michael Harrison, Patricia Harrup, Darlene Harville, Freddy Hathaway, Gene Hicks, Benny Hicks, Donna Hill, Mary Hinton, Ray Hinton, Roy Holcombe, David Houchins, Barbara Hughs, Edward Ivey, Chester seventy Jackson, Gene Jackson, Patricia Jarvis, Della Jennings, Grey Jeter, Renay Johnson, Robert Johnson, Susan Jones, Harry Jones, Howard Jones, Robert Lee Jordan, Gail Kafla, Barbara Kahl, Deannie Keifer, Eileen Kennedy, Cheryl Kevan, Nancy Kidd, Rocky Kidd, Patsy King, James Kinsey, Anne Kirkland, Margaret Kirkland, Ronnie Kline, Robert Lancaster, James Lane, Barbara Lane, Brenda Lane, Sarah Lee, Bill Lester, Tommy Levet, Donna Lewis, Cecile Lewis, Sonny Lewis, Ricky Linder, Robert Liskey, Laura Logan, Carolyn Lufsey, Ronnie Lundie, Wayne Lunsford, Vaughan McCall, John McEwen, Ray Ann McKenney, John seventy-one Mareniah, Ann Mason, Kenneth Mason, Sally Mayes, Carolyn Mayes, Syd Mayton, Donald Meade, Mary Tyler Merton, Diane Mils, Carol Monroe, Mary Moody, Michael Moody, Rebecca Moore, Terry Neal, Betty Jean Newman, Jessica Newsom, Margaret Nicholas, Joanne Novak, Betty Ann Nunnally, Nancy Oliver, Thomas Owen, Nancy Ozmar, Gwendolyn Parker, Jerry Pearce, Suzanne Perkins, Tommy Perkinson, Raymond Poole, Barbara Powell, Hugh Price, Carolyn Pugh, Larry Pugh, Wayne Pursell, Elliott Rainey, Randy Ramsey, Wayne Reese, Nita Richardson, Sharon Ridout, Leslie Riggan, Nash Rives, Patricia Rogers, Anne Romaine, Polly Roper, Elizabeth seventy-two Roper, Mary Paul Rose, Milton Rosso, Donna Russell, Barbara Sea, Jimmie Siegel, Ricky SlEGLE, WlLMAR Seymore, Jeanette Shannon Martha Sherill, Jean Shumate, Delmar Simmons, Linda Skinner, Janie Slate, Joan Smith, Charles Smith, Susan Soto, Emilia Spero, Donald Steinberg, Harvey Stell, Jo Anne Stewart, William Stillerman, Roy Sullivan, Betty Sullivan, Pamela Swann, Bobby Syme, Bud Teach, Beverly Temple, Florence Thompson, Sonny Thurman, Ellen Tobias, Carl Toler, Carolyn Traylor, Eva Tucker, Nancy Tunstall, Nancy Turner, Richard Tyrie, Clyde Tyrus, Patricia VanLandingham, Johnnie Van Wagoner, Anne Vaughan, Allen Vaughan, Clifford seventy-three Vaughan, Susan Wade, Carol Wagstaff, Charles Walker, Linda Walker, Valerie Watts, Linda Weatherholt, Claudette Webster, Nancy Whirley, Richard Whitt, Stephen Willcox, DeeDee Willingham, Alice Faye Wolf, Rita Ann Woolard, Milton Wooldridge, Nancy Worth, Robin Wrenn, David Not Pictured: Bailey, Judy Biggs, Mac Blair, David Britton, Frances Crowder, John Davis, Dorothy Dillon, Bobby Douglas, George Gadsby, Jacqueline Hudson, Melvin Hudson, Thomas Jones, Sandra Joyner, Linda Lander, Ruth Saunders, Lillian Scales, Linda Tucker, George Wall, Richard seventy-four Pennsylvania Monument.

It takes all the stall members to make the Missile the success that it is, and you can be sure that each person works hard! The Missile, besides being a guidebook of school activities, serves as our “family album” and will always be a source of happy memories of life at P.H.S.

To become a member a boy must have good grades, must show qualities of leadership and good sportsmanship, and must have an invitation approved by a faculty committee headed by Mr. Russell B. Gill, principal. The Key Club sweetheart, Rosemary Rudy, was presented to the school in a special assembly held on October 18, 1960.

We are proud to say that the mem- bers of the Commercial Club are able to write more original letters and that they make fewer mistakes in spelling and grammar. Any student who is taking a commercial subject (typing, shorthand, or bookkeeping ) may join the club. As a project for this year the members sewed their own mon- ograms for their club sweaters.

Forrest The words of General Nathan Bedford Forrest, famous Confederate Calvary officer and raider, might well be applied to the Varsity Club. Each boy in the Varsity Club has demonstrated that he knows the importance of hustle and drive in sports, by earning his letter in a major sport, the main requirement for membership. Besides helping to promote good sportsmanship, the club has several projects this year such as parking cars at basketball games and other school events, and providing a Christmas basket for a needy family in Petersburg.

The high-stepping major- ettes perform with the band at pep rallies, football games, pa- rades, and other events. The majorettes lend an air of gaiety in a way that nothing else could. The six girls were chosen be- cause of their ability to march and perform their routines well, as well as on the basis of their genial personalities. Majorettes Clockwise: Claudia Talbott, Amanda Halloway, Pat Collins, Beverly Hawks, Alean Price, Linda Maxcey. Head Majorette — Linda Maxcey “ Colors ” When the word “colors” is mentioned, many people think of flags ( Confederate flags, Old Glory, etc. ) , but the talented students in the Art Class think only of colors such as red, blue, green, or brown. These students study the basic principles of water and oil paint- ing and spend a great deal of time experimenting on their own works. The beginners’ class which is open to any interested student meets on Monday afternoons at school, while the advanced pu- pils meet at Mrs. Musgrove’s studio at the Petersburg School of Fine Arts on Wednesday nights. Projects include visiting art museums and presenting ap- propriate paintings to the school. Art Class First Row: D. Willcox, L. Rubin, M. Price, L. Curry, E. Ellis, B. Wyatt, K. Temple.

One such play, “The Battle of Gettysburg”, was presented in 1863 at Johnson’s Island by Confederate pris- oners who called themselves “Rebel Thespians.” The members of the Dramatics Club entertain their audiences by productions of various types, and every play they present is a smashing success. Members work backstage on props, lighting, or costumes, or have roles in plays. The casts are chosen by a try-out which is open to the entire school, and those chosen for parts automatically become members of the Dramatics Club. The club presents at least one play a year. Membership is open to those who are interested in the field of dramatics.

The P.H.S Band is organized to keep school morale high and to provide an outlet for the musical interests of band members. A bandsman is chosen on the basis of sportsmanship and enthusiasm as well as musicianship, and for this reason the band is one of the more influential school groups. The band is divided into two groups: the Marching Band, which performs at pep rallies, football games, and at the Christmas Parade; and the Concert Band, which plays more sophisticated music, of which about two-thirds is classical.

DISPATCHERS” Just as dispatchers in the War Between the States had to carry news from place to place and from person to person, the Review and its staff keep students up to date on news concerning the school. The Review, P.H.S.’s own school newspaper caters to the interests of every school club and activity. The editors, reporters, circulation staff, and proof- readers do a tremendous job of finding the news and reporting it in an interesting manner.

The athletic fields of this well-known preparatory school in England provided, in the Duke’s estimation, the valuable training for the ordeals to which these boys might be subjected in their military careers. Thus it is shown that from sports comes the true preparation for the “battles” of life. A “soldier” on an athletic field gains knowledge of the importance of sincerity, honesty, fair-play, and sportsmanship. These principles are the very ideals for which brother fought brother in the War Between the States. Each side, both North and South, had such very deep faith in their beliefs and had the courage of their convictions even to fight a bitter and bloody war. Heroism is composed of many faces— an athletic field, a battlefield in a war, and most important, in the ever-moving tide of human life. one hundred one 1960 BASEBALL First Row, left to right: Allen Moore, Billy Spencer, Ollie Jarvis, Dougie Traylor, Lee Smoot, Bobby Douthat.

TRACK Petersburg High School’s 1959- 1960 track and field team, under the skillful coaching of Mr. Bob H oward and Mr. Stan Brown, posted a very creditable .500 per- centage in Central District com- petition. After an initial heart- breaking loss to strong Highland Springs, 56-57, the Wave striderss defeated Prince George, South- ampton, and Thomas Dale in dual track meets, and placed second in the f lopewell - Petersburg -T homas Dale triangular meet. Led by Earl Hawkins, Bennie Kirkland, Cleve Wright, Newton Georgel, and Ronnie Skelton, the track team set a total of eleven new school records at Cameron Field. The Wave developed one of the best 880 and mile relay teams in the district. The quartet of Jimmy Kuska, Robert Vaughan, Ronnie Cook, and Bennie Kirkland was beaten only once in seven meets. Five of 1960’s outstanding per- formers will be lost next season: Wright, a transfer to Woodberry Forest; Kuska, Cook, Bishop, and M. Hawkins via graduation. Benny shows hurdler’s stretch.

TENNIS Under the capable coaching of Mr. Robert Kilbourne and with assist- ance from Mrs. Helen Brooks, the P. H. S. tennis team performed admirably in 1960.

The big Wave romped over seven of its opponents, allowing only two losses, and battling out one tie with second-place Highland Springs. Much credit must go to head coach Bob Howard and his assistants, Stan Brown and Hubert Payne, whose determination and hard work whipped these boys into one of the best teams Petersburg has had in many a year.

Honorable mention went to Lynn Parrish, end; Newton Georgel, tackle; Van Robertson, guard; Buddy Fisher and Doug Traylor, backfield.

JAYVEE FOOTBALL Hustle, desire to win, good coaching, four wins and only two losses— these were the highlights of the 1960 Junior Varsity squad. An added attraction was the team’s win over the Hopewell Jayvees which occurred with the Varsity’s win to make a double slam in the Blue Devil ' s face. The team was led scorewise by Aubrey Townsend with thirty-six points. He was supported in the backfield by Hugh Powell, Jack Beck— Co-Captain of the team, Bobby Bowman, and Jerry Blick.

Wave Has Surprising, Season The 1960-1961 Wave basketball team, starting the year with no returning lettermen, finished the season with a respectable 10 and 9 record. The Wave’s 8—6 record in district play was good enough to earn them the filth position in the Central District standing. The Wave started the season off with two thrilling victories over Prince George and George Wythe, but then faced three of Virginia ' s top teams— Highland Springs, Thomas Jefferson, and Midlothian, losing all three. At mid-term Bob Kilbourne’s cagers had compiled a fair 5—6 record. After exams, the Wave, having gained valuable experience, came on strong, upsetting highly-rated John Marshall, winner of the Central District Tournament; and they gained sweet revenge by beating Hopewell in sudden death on Lee Smoot’s game-ending jump shot. The tournament pitted Petersburg against John Marshall. Al- though the Wave outscored the Justices in the second half, they could not overcome a thirteen point half deficit and lost 63—52. The scoring was led by Lou Siegel and Pete Feil, both having identical 10.6 averages. Jimmy Pannill was the top rebounder, while Lee Smoot was the little floor general. Jim Rosenstock, Dougie Traylor, and Bobby Douthat played well alternating at the guard sj)ot. The Wave had strong reserves in Kirk Jones and Hugh Powell.

Using a zone press defense and mu-shoot offense, the Jayvees mastered most of their opponents easily. At mid-season Kirk Jones and Hugh Powell were advanced to the Varsity squad. This action in no way hampered the Jayvee’s victory march. In the coming basketball sea- son, many of these Jayvees will become material for the PHS Varsity team. First row: M. Rose, B. Kutcher, T.

Ricky Siegel and Carl Tobias led the scoring parade with 13.5 and 10.3 averages, respectively.

Since they had only two letter- men returning, Sylvia Matthews, the captain of the team, and Mary Jo Tudor; the team’s worst enemy was inexperience. Although the Wavelets won only one game— the contest with Hopewell— the girls showed fine spirit throughout their games. Sylvia Matthews led the team with a .454 average and Shirley Slate came in second with an average of .371. At the end of the year, Sylvia Matthews received her fourth year star and Mary Jo Tudor received her third year star.

GIRLS’ HOCKEY “It not winning the game that counts, but how you play it.” Although the Wavelets dropped all seven of their games to their opponents, Petersburg High School was well represented by good sportsmanship and conduct. The main factor contributing to these losses was inexperience, shall and Shirley Slate were co-captains for the 1960 season.

Ea ch summer some of Petersburg High’s students attend Girls’ State and Boys’ State. These conventions present occasions which allow the participants to become acquainted with situations which they will have to cope with in the future. All of these opportunities give us a chance to gain knowl- edge from older students and also to become adjusted to the way of living with others. By taking advantage of these experiences, we develop— for experience is the best teacher. one hundred twenty Jimmy Porter, Michael Feinberg, Whitey Lunsford, Mary Lee Ashly, and Michael Diamond are busily learning to type. Mr. Powers talks about papers while anxious students look on. Stuart Spero, Jimmy Powers, Johann Vinson, Benny Kirkland, Charles Joyner, and the rest of the solid geometry class take a leisure day. Arriving at Petersburg High are students fr om every corner of the city. The front porch and stej)s are crowded with students catching up on the latest news or discussing the day’s activities, while other students are already in their homerooms preparing last minute studies. At this time of morning, the school library is usually buzzing with students. We all feel that these few leisure minutes each morning pass much too quickly, for before one realizes the time, it is 8:55. Then there is a frantic rush to homerooms to get ready for another school day. Miss Doan has an interesting Latin class with some lack of attention.

Awaited by monitors at each flight of stairs, wearing familiar crimson and gold armbands, we are corrected if we go on the wrong side of the poles. Throughout the school, students endure a rough hour of physics, while others learn skills such as typing, or enjoy a study hall. Bi- ology students find it interesting to study all kinds of plants and animals. The students taking Dis- tributive Education or Diversified Occupations have jobs and attend school at the same time. Home Economics classrooms have tempt- ing odors of the tasty dishes pre- pared by the busy girls. Physical Education students may enjoy a game of baseball, basketball, or hockey. Other students may take a class period to visit one of our consultants, who have offices of their own. Whatever we do, we gain knowledge only through co- operation and hard work. one hundred ticentij-ttvo Congratulations to Tommy Williams, winner of the DeSousa band award; Bill Carter, winner of the Glee Club award; and Sandra Jamison, winner of the Mary T.

For each senior class, the Rotary Club of Petersburg pre- sents a banquet and a dance. No student could leave Petersburg High School without opportunities for service and leadership and a mind full of pleasant memories. one hundred twenty-nine THE BATTLE OF THE CRATER The Battle of the Crater was one of the bloodiest engagements on the battlefields of Virginia. It took place just outside Petersburg, Virginia. A mine shaft tunnel, engineered by Lt. Col. Henry Pleasants and built by the Union troops, extended from the edge of the Union encampment to a terminus well within the Confederate camp. The plan was to place underneath the Confederate lines four tons of powder which would explode and throw the Rebel forces into chaos. At this point the Union troops would attack with a hope of utterly demolishing the Southerners. They saw as a reward for their efforts the capitulation of Petersburg and, perhaps, the end of the War. Just as this battle did not end the War Between the States, a young person’s education does not stop with a high school diploma. Whether he goes on to college or into the world of business and commerce, he is sure to continue learn- ing and to build on his previous knowledge throughout his life. one hundred thirty SIGNAL TOWERS Signal towers such as this one were used by both Confederate and Union armies during the War Between the States. Their purposes were manifold— they provided an advantage in height from which a sentry could look down and warn about approaching troops; they were used to locate enemy camps; and to over- look the general terrain. The Petersburg businesses have much the same purposes— their “sentries” are always on the alert for changes and innovations in the business world, they watch over the “general terrain” of the commercial universe and are well-informed about new ways of doing things and current ideas. We appreciate their support of the 1961 Missile and urge that the Petersburg High School students patronize our advertisers. one hundred thirty-one After ' commencement , what are you going to commence f Before you make your final decision, consider a telephone career.

Although now you are graduates, you can do a great service for the rest of us, if you never cease to be students — looking for opportunities and ways to cherish the American system of free enterprise and to im- prove the American way of life. You can be thankful for free schools in a country where you are free to worship and work and think and talk as you please. This is your heritage from the people who built America. THE FUTURE is pretty largely in your hands — you must be vigilant and active to combat the evils of socialism, government domination of private industry, and all the “isms” that destroy democracy.
